Olasyke: Go where? I have a friend eating eatery-leftover at 43 and at 47, he recently bought a landed property next to the eatery he was scrapping from. He only learned a handiwork and got a huge contract from a local political big-boy from the hood. Maybe it doesn't happen every day to everybody but miracles happen to some people sometimes.

Foreign Affairs / Re: Moscow Has Forgiven $23billion Debts Owed By African Countries – Putin by Canvass: 10:49pm On Jul 28, 2023 |
ManirBK: There is something special about Africa that we Africans still don't understand. Why have they all, world leaders, been fighting for the soul of Africa since they made contact? To me, Africa seem like a soccer ball that 22 players run to possess but it's oblivious of it's value. If we knew why they want us so bad, we'll make them crawl and beg and not just forgive our superficial debt. 1 Like |

Education / Re: Federal Universities In Nigeria Remain Tuition-Free - Dele Alake by Canvass: 1:25pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
Don't be smart by half, Mr Spokesman. Everyone knows these institutions are still tuition-free but you've found a way of introducing a little tuition by padding up fees. Within 60 days in office, your administration has removed subsidies on fuel, education, and health, after deregulating the naira. You've also prioritized the comfort of those in the various arms of government over people's interests. 35 Likes 1 Share |
Food / Re: Is This Fact About Boiled/roasted Corn True? by Canvass: 1:10pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
Based on the Agbadorian Principle, corn must be sold on or around a gutter. Show me a corn seller comfortable enough to rent a shop and package corn selling properly to make a good profit margin and I'll show you who told them to always sell corn on or around a gutter. If you don't want gutter corn, just opt for pop-corn. Shikena. 1 Like |

Politics / Re: Subsidy: Your Policies Inflicting Hardship On Nigerians, CAN Tackles Tinubu by Canvass: 8:17pm On Jul 22, 2023 |
nairalanda1: Removing subsidies on petrol and allied products importation is no longer the issue now. It is the quiet removal of subsidies on education and health, plus the devaluation of the Naira all in the space of less than 100 days. Yet we await a tariff hike in electricity and the re-introduction of suspended taxes on future dates. I thought the removal of subsidies on petrol is to free up funds for other essential subsidies to be retained. Now I understand it is to free up more funds for the political elites to buy bullet-proof cars and maintain their luxurious lifestyles, while they throw N8000 at the people as palliative. |
Sports / Re: Cristiano Ronaldo: "Saudi League Is Better Than MLS". by Canvass: 11:31am On Jul 18, 2023 |
Almiron: I think Messi is a better player but I don't think jealousy has a lot to do with Ronaldo's statements. These guys are professionals and they do what they need to do to get paid. Ronaldo may pale in comparison to Messi but he has also achieved a lot and it's an accomplishment to be mentioned in the same breath as Messi, hence he is an excellent advert tool. I see this more from a business perspective. Ronaldo knows he's spewing nonsense but PR for the Saudi League is part of his job and he's only trying to do what he's paid for. When Beckham moved to MLS back then, others moved en-mass too and MLS became attractive. China and Japan have tried this same move before. Saudi has been trying the move for a while now but they could only attract African top players like Okocha, Ighalo, and Cameroon's Abubakar. The move is finally working for Saudi now and MLS responded by dragging Messi across the Atlantic Ocean just to maintain its share of the market. You may be right though, because no one can know the heart of man. This is just how I see the drama. |

These men are unrepentant. If the U.S. bar them, they will go elsewhere. Our judiciary system is so bastardized that those guys on the bench are not supposed to be referred to as learned fellows. They are lap dogs of the very corrupt executives. My only fear is that we already know the fate of Obi and Atiku. 2 Likes |

This guy is not the originator of the Elu-Pee song. The song originated from UI students trying to show their solidarity for Peter Obi during ballot counting at a ward on campus. Even if he's the singer, does that stop him from practicing his vocation? There is no shame in hard work. He sang because he is creative and not cos he was looking for a political appointment.

Jogs1900: Do not exclude Lagos from South West. If the Federal Government and the Aboriginal people of Lagos recognize Lagos as SW, why should you bend to the sentiments of a non-state actor? Akinnolu, the Oba of Lagos and Sanwoolu, the Governor of Lagos both answer Yoruba names. If they are looking for their commonwealth, they should look to Abuja which has appointed minister as the administrator and not Lagos which would always be governed by a Yoruba man. 2 Likes 1 Share |

The POS operators want to tell us that fuel price has gone up and they need to charge their POS machine. That must be the reason for the unauthorized increment in charges. It seem some people enjoy crazy policies as it help them make crazy money. These POS operators have tasted good money during Naira Change period and have become addicted.

Education / Re: Mmesoma Ejikeme Opens Up After JAMB Accused Her Of Forging JAMB Result by Canvass: 12:42pm On Jul 04, 2023 |
nairalanda1: I am compelled to listen to your arguments even if I still have my doubts about some of the answers you provided. Your responses to each point are sound. I particularly agree with your points about chosen courses and institutions. it seems a deliberate and systemic thing to find the smartest students vying for science-oriented courses. However, law students are supposed to be just as smart too. Why is none of them breaking the ceiling since 2017? |
Education / Re: Mmesoma Ejikeme Opens Up After JAMB Accused Her Of Forging JAMB Result by Canvass: 9:02am On Jul 04, 2023 |
dominique: Even if we overlook the girl's exterior look, countenance, and track record and think there are some smart chaps doing wonders on the keyboard somewhere, I still think JAMB may be hiding something. I wrote UTME for 5 consecutive years, from 2017 to 2021, and here is the pattern I found; 1. Science students consistently get the top 10 highest scores every year. Does that imply there are no excellent commercial and art students in this country or JAMB is deliberate about promoting STEM at the expense of other courses? 2. The top ten highest scorers mostly choose a handful of courses namely: Medicine, Engineering, and Computer Science. 3. The top ten highest scorers mostly choose a handful of schools namely: Covenant University and a sprinkle of federal universities especially Unilag, UNN, OAU, Uniben, and Unilorin. 4. The top ten highest scorers are rarely over 21 years old. The above pattern made me believe there is a Censoring System JAMB adopts before results are released and that applicants do not get to see their raw or exact scores but the adjusted scores. If that is the case, JAMB possibly experienced a glitch with this issue and they are unwilling to take the knock as that would not only damage the trust in the institution, it would be a dent in the Registrar's sterling record and impeccable image. I pray all well-meaning Nigerians to push the diligent forensic investigation into this matter. 1 Like |
Romance / Re: Females On Average Usually Have Higher Body Counts Than Males by Canvass: 7:06am On Jul 03, 2023 |
You did not put the age range. On average, most females start getting exposed to sex from the age of 13 and they easily get sexual partners until the age of 25-30 when they become acutely aware of their biological clocks. However, males start grooving at 19 and keep grooving until around 40 when they start slowing down. Marriage and childbearing slow women down significantly while only financial muscle is the only constraint for men going forward, barring health concerns for both genders. In the short term, women may have greater body count but in the long term, men usually have higher body count. 2 Likes |

So far so good, Nigeria under Tinubu has been tilting towards the West while most other African countries are tilting towards China and Russia. He has been doing everything IMF, World Bank and WEF have stipulated. No more fuel subsidy, power subsidy to go, taxes coming up e.g. diesel vat tax increase, devaluing Naira etc. I don't see them killing him so soon. He's doing their bids. 15 Likes 2 Shares |
